app.use('/public', express.static(path(__dirname) + '/public'))
// the directory '/public' represents whatever direcotory your html file is
// example: if your host naturally looks for a file named 'index.html', then
//   when running this server on that host, it will look in the directory for
//   'index.html' and will automatically display it when someone goes to 
//   (yoursite).com.  It varies from host to host.
